Altemio Sanchez was a modern-day Jekyll and Hyde—a family man who resided in Buffalo, New York, with a wife and two sons, worked nights as a machinist, and concealed a terrible secret.

He Killed. . . For fourteen years, the Bike Path Killer mercilessly raped and murdered his prey, eluding police every step of the way. Then, the killings stopped. People wondered whether he'd left town, had been locked up in prison for another crime, or maybe even died. But when another woman's corpse with the same lethal signature surfaced, authorities knew the Bike Path Killer was back. And He Almost Got Away With It. Now, for the first time, two award-winning reporters follow a depraved killer's bloody trail of terror to the bitter end: his horrifying confession. . . Includes 16 pages of shocking photos. "

Download or read book The Desert Murders written by Mary Lash and published by . This book was released on 2015-02-22 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Desert Murders: How Junk Science, Witness Contamination, and Arizona Politics Condemned an Innocent Man" reconstructs the case of Scott Lehr, a man sentenced to death in Arizona - despite abundant evidence of his innocence. In 1991-92, an epidemic of seven rapes in the desert outskirts of Phoenix mystified local law enforcement. Television and newspaper reports described the assaults against girls and women ranging in age from 10 to 47 as related, for the victims had all accepted rides from personable men, whom some of the women described as generally similar. The theory quickly evolved that one man - nicknamed the I-17 rapist or the baby-seat rapist - was guilty of all the attacks. When the bodies of Margaret Christorf, Michelle Morales, and Belinda Cronin were found in the desert over a six-month period, investigators assumed that the hypothetical serial rapist had committed those murders as well. Based primarily on a vague resemblance among the cars used in some of the assaults, detectives arrested 32-year-old Scott Lehr, a devoted father of three with no criminal history. Lehr was tried, found guilty, and sentenced to two death sentences and 982 years in prison - despite troubling flaws in the investigation and blatant falsehoods in the testimony against him. "The Desert Murders" analyzes the crime investigations and offers a front-row seat on the prosecution of Scott Lehr. Exhaustively researched from police reports, trial transcripts, correspondence, interviews, and news articles, the book provides information the juries that convicted him never knew, including inconsistent eyewitness testimony, false allegations by the prosecution, scanty, possibly tainted forensic evidence, and the fact that similar crimes continued to occur in the area after his incarceration. In addition to detailed coverage of the crimes and the trials, the book includes chapters on Lehr's interaction with Maricopa County's Sheriff Joe Arpaio and on the botched 1991 Temple Murders case, which helped set the stage for Lehr's prosecution. "The Desert Murders" puts a personal face on such issues as the inadequacy of representation for poor defendants, the workings of plea bargaining, attorneys' and judges' human failings, and the probability of error in death penalty trials. Anyone concerned with injustice and the politics of the death penalty will want to read it.

Download or read book A Year of Terror on the Streets of Phoenix written by Jack Smith and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under the hot sun of Arizona, there is a killer on the loose in the street of Phoenix... The gunfire in Phoenix, Arizona, began in the late summer of 2005. For the next year, the shots would continue-along with the robberies, rapes, and assaults. Phoenix realized it had a serial killer on its hands, but it wouldn't take long for investigators to discover the unbelievable truth: There was more than one killer, and they were operating independently of each other. The Baseline Killer targeted mostly women. He assaulted them and raped them at gunpoint. Eventually, he began to kill his victims. Named after Baseline Road, and originally called the Baseline Rapist, Mark Goudeau was their first serial killer. The second one was actually two, and sometimes three, men of mayhem. The Serial Street Shooters drove around shooting people and animals from the window of their car. Samuel Dieteman and Dale Hausner shot anyone who struck their fancy, sometimes multiple people in one night, and sometimes in the same night they would rob stores or light them on fire. Jeff Hausner, Dale's brother, tagged along for some of the first crimes. And then they were all caught, convicted, and given their sentences. One decade later, Phoenix was once again in the crosshairs of a madman as another serial shooter popped up. In fact, another several did. One was a man who drove around and shot people on the sidewalks, in their homes, standing by their cars. He was the Maryvale Serial Shooter, and his name was Aaron Saucedo. While Saucedo spent a year, from the summer of 2015 to the fall of 2016, shooting and killing people, he had some competition during his first active month. A man known as the I-10 Shooter had begun shooting at cars on the highway, although his attacks caused only one injury and no fatalities. Several copycat shooters turned up as well. In this book, we will delve primarily into the Baseline Killer and the Serial Street Shooter cases, reopening the year of terror in Phoenix, Arizona. Scroll back up and order your copy now!

Book excerpt: Looking at popular culture from 1980 to the present, feminism appears to be "over": that is, according to popular critics we are in an era of "postfeminism" in which feminism has supposedly already achieved equality for women. Not so, says Sarah Projansky. In Watching Rape, Projansky undermines this complacent view in her fascinating and thorough analysis of depictions of rape in U.S. film, television, and independent video. Through a cultural studies analysis of such films as Thelma and Louise, Daughters of the Dust, and She's Gotta Have It, and television shows like ER, Ally McBeal, Beverly Hills 90210, and various made-for-tv movies, Projansky challenges us to see popular culture as a part of our everyday lives and practices, and to view that culture critically. How have media defined rape and feminism differently over time? How do popular narratives about rape also communicate ideas about gender, race, class, nationality, and sexuality? And, what is the future of feminist politics, theory, and criticism with regard to issues of sexual violence, postfeminism, and popular media? The first study to address the relationship between rape and postfeminism, and one of the most detailed and thorough analyses of rape in 25 years, Watching Rape is a crucial contribution to contemporary feminism.

Download or read book A Natural History of Rape written by Randy Thornhill and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2001-02-23 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biologist and an anthropologist use evolutionary biology to explain the causes and inform the prevention of rape. In this controversial book, Randy Thornhill and Craig Palmer use evolutionary biology to explain the causes of rape and to recommend new approaches to its prevention. According to Thornhill and Palmer, evolved adaptation of some sort gives rise to rape; the main evolutionary question is whether rape is an adaptation itself or a by-product of other adaptations. Regardless of the answer, Thornhill and Palmer note, rape circumvents a central feature of women's reproductive strategy: mate choice. This is a primary reason why rape is devastating to its victims, especially young women. Thornhill and Palmer address, and claim to demolish scientifically, many myths about rape bred by social science theory over the past twenty-five years. The popular contention that rapists are not motivated by sexual desire is, they argue, scientifically inaccurate. Although they argue that rape is biological, Thornhill and Palmer do not view it as inevitable. Their recommendations for rape prevention include teaching young males not to rape, punishing rape more severely, and studying the effectiveness of "chemical castration." They also recommend that young women consider the biological causes of rape when making decisions about dress, appearance, and social activities. Rape could cease to exist, they argue, only in a society knowledgeable about its evolutionary causes. The book includes a useful summary of evolutionary theory and a comparison of evolutionary biology's and social science's explanations of human behavior. The authors argue for the greater explanatory power and practical usefulness of evolutionary biology. The book is sure to stir up discussion both on the specific topic of rape and on the larger issues of how we understand and influence human behavior.

Download or read book I Never Called It Rape written by Robin Warshaw and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new edition of the 1988 classic text that exposed the extreme prevalence of rape in America, coining the term acquaintance rape and establishing the disturbing statistics on sexual assault that still hold just as true today—now featuring an original preface from Gloria Steinem, a new introduction by Salamishah Tillet, an updated afterword by Mary P. Koss, PH.D., as well as an updated resources section. “Essential. . . . It is nonpolemical, lucid, and speaks eloquently not only to the victims of acquaintance rape but to all those caught in its net.”— Philadelphia Inquirer In 1988, Robin Warshaw wrote I Never Called It Rape, the ground-breaking book that revealed a staggering truth: 25% of women were the victims of rape or attempted rape. Over 80% of these women knew their assailants. Warhsaw based her reportage on the first large-scale study into rape ever, conducted by Ms. Magazine in the late 80s. Thirty years later, we now have a wealth of statistics on rape. The disturbing truth is that the figures have not diminished. That our culture enables rape is not just shown by the numbers—the outbreak of allegations against serial rapists from Bill Cosby to Harvey Weinstein and the 2016 presidential election of Donald Trump, a man who was recorded bragging about sexual assault, have further amplified this horrifying truth. With over 80,000 copies sold to date, I Never Called It Rape has served as a guide to understanding rape as a cultural phenomenon for tens of thousands—providing women and men with strategies to address our rape endemic; survivors with the context and resources to help them heal from their experiences; and pulling the wool from all our eyes on the pervasiveness of rape and sexual assault today. As relevant today as when it was first published, this new edition features Warshaw’s original report and her 1994 Introduction, as well as an original Preface from Gloria Steinem, a new Introduction by Salamishah Tillet on how the cultural landscape has evolved since the 1980s, an updated Afterword by Mary P. Koss, PH.D., examining the ways she would approach the research she did for Ms. differently today, as well as an updated resources section.
